ChurchTrac vs Tyler Eden

ChurchTrac is a church management platform with tools for people and groups, attendance, fund accounting, giving, worship planning, volunteer scheduling, events, registration and child check-in. Church Connect adds a website builder, member portal and mobile app, included with every subscription. Worship planning can import songs through SongSelect or PraiseCharts, and online giving integrates with Stripe. The service runs on Android, iOS, macOS, web and Windows. Monthly plans start at $29 a month for 75 people; listed tiers extend to $119 a month for unlimited tracked people. A 30-day trial is available, but there is no free plan. Each tracked individual counts toward the plan’s people limit, while archived names do not. ChurchTrac says account data is isolated in separate databases, connections use TLS encryption, backups are made regularly, and card or bank details are not stored. Support includes setup sessions and weekly live training. ChurchTrac was founded in 2002 and is headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, United States.

Tyler Eden is a web-based ERP system for government organizations, with functions spanning finance, human resources, utility billing, and IT. Tyler's materials address clients in small cities, large counties, special districts, authorities, and school districts. Its financial management is described as multi-fund accounting with fiscal controls for grants, project costs, performance, and budgeting. Eden applications described by Tyler also include utility billing, permits and inspections, code enforcement, project accounting, licensing, cashiering, and Notify communications. Tyler describes phased rollouts, including an example for a smaller city with limited finance and IT staff. Time & Attendance can integrate with Eden to reduce or eliminate duplicate entry between timekeeping and payroll. For remaining Eden clients planning an upgrade, Tyler presents Enterprise ERP, powered by Munis, as an option. That product supports third-party integrations and real-time reporting. Tyler says its implementation team assists from the first implementation meeting through final signoff; Eden clients can submit support cases online at any time. Eden has no free plan, and pricing is available on request.
